OBITUARY.

Died, at the residence of her father,
George Parrot, in Rapidan township, on
Friday, August Goth, 1887, Julia 5. Par
rot, aged ten years and five months.
Her life was brief but beautiful. The
sun has gone down while yet in the
eastern sky. The springing flower has
been blasted just as it was bursting forth
into full beauty. Her life on earth has
closed before the struggle began, for
ave who linger longest here
Know most of pain"
Her footprints will soon be obliterated
from the sands of time. But let there
now be overmuch weeping that she has
passed so soon to the land of immortal
ty, and while the dew of youth was still
upon her brow. 1t is only the body that
is laid in the grave, the spirit has re-
turned to God who gave it, and when a
few fleeing days and years shall have
run their rounds, parents and child shall
meet again, and the silken cords of love
and affection that bound their hearts in
one while here but which have severed
by the rude hand of death, will be re-
united to continue forever. The tears of
affection that we shed on the graves Of
our beloved ones are not lost. Illumi-
mated by divine love they will ere long
rise into bows of beauty in the celestial
armament. AS there has been parting
so there will be meeting.
"Say not good night,
But In some brighter cline bid me good
morning"

FIRE-BUG ARRESTED.

Frank Lobdell, young boy aged about
ten years, was arrested to-day on the
charge of arson.
1t will be remembered that on August
9th, Mr.. John Duffy's barn and contents
together with Mr.. Lobdell's barn burned
to the ground before the fire department
could do anything. The fire originated
in Duffy's barn. The halters of the
horses had been cut several times, and
every one in the vicinity was on the
lookout to see the culprit, should he at
tempt to cut them again. The fire start
ed while everyone was thus watching
the barn. Frank Lobdell and several
other boys had been playing in the barn
just previous to the breaking out of the
fire, and young Lobdell was suspected of
setting fire to it, though there was not
enough proof to arrest him. The police
authorities have since had the matter in
charge and have not been idle, but it
was not until Yesterday afternoon that
their efforts were rewarded with success.
The boy admitted to Officer Kelly and a
carpenter named Foote that he had
thrown a lighted match into the hay,
though he claims that it was not his in
tention TO burn the building. A warrant
was Immediately sworn out by Mr.. Duffy
and the boy secured. This morning he
denied the charge, claiming that he
owned up to it Yesterday through the
threats of the officers. There has been
friction between the Duffy
and Lobdell families for some time. The
one side claims that the barn was fired
through spite, while the other denies
the charge en- tirely.

New ULM is lively little city and we
were glad to note few days since the
decision of the Brown county commits
sloners to erect new court house at that
place. 1t appears, however, that Sleepy
Eye has woke up and proposes to do
some vigorous kicking against the pro-
posed building. The following dispatch
gives the Sleepy Eye side of the case,
and seems to indicate that our neighbors
have lively county seat war on hand:
At meeting of the business men of
this place it was unanimously determin-
ed to vigorously oppose the building of
a new court house at New Ulm. Compe-
tent counsel has been engaged and the
matter will be pushed Immediately into
the courts. 1t has for some time been
known that the citizens of the central
and western portions of the county de-
sire a more central location for the coun-
ty seat than at New Ulm, which is in
the extreme eastern corner of the coun-
ty. New Ulm succeeded in getting three
of the county commissioners to pass a
resolution to erect at New Ulm $35, 900
court house. The present county build
ings are said to be in good order and the
best in this judicial district, with possib-
ly the exception of Nicollet county. The
citizens of this place will contest the
matter to the bitter end. Sleepy Eye is
in the geographical center of the coun-
ty, and believes that in a popular vote
she would secure majority.

Co., which with the property he had &C
cumulated will leave his family In COM
Portable circumstances. Mr.. Root ran
special train from Wells to Woonsocket
Yesterday morning, carrying the wife of
the dying man to his bedside, but he
was unconscious and did not recognize
her. The deceased was man highly
respected by all railroad men, and his
death is source of sorrow to all who
knew him, and his sudden taking off
will be severely felt by his invalid wife,
who has been afflicted for the past year
with rheumatism, and is now left help
less cripple for life.

THE SEYMOUR-HENRY CASE.

On Monday County Attorney Meow
ern and Judge Crump, of Waseca, went
to GAINESVILLE to get out warrant for the
arrest of Seymour. Mrs. Seymour re-
fuses to make complaint against her
husband unless Mr.. Henry should make
a similar complaint against his wife; and
if Mrs. Henry was not to be prosecuted
her husband would not be. The county
attorney, therefore, telegraphed the au-
thorities at New York to release Sey-
mour, as there was no legal charge
against him. Accordingly the reverend
rascal was discharged by the police
judge III New York yesterday. The
justice advised him not TO go back to
Minnesota or he might get lynched.
Seymour, with great dignity, replied
that he intended to 60 straight back to
GAINESVILLE and get his wife and children
and that if his enemies wanted to lynch
him he was Gin the hands of the Lord -

The night of July 18th horse was

A SERIOUS CHARGE.

Considerable excitement was caused
Friday afternoon by the arrest of Mr..
w. III. Anderson on a warrant sworn out
by Martin Brunsberg charging him with
indecent assault upon the person of his
adopted daughter, Maud Brunsberg.
The complaint alleges that between May
10th and August 9TH Anderson re-
peatedly committed assaults upon the
girl. She had kept the matter quiet un-
til a few days ago when she informed
her father, with the above results.
Mr.. Anderson is a wIdower, having
family of children in st. Paul, is about
forty-fve years of age and keeps can
dy shop and restaurant on Front street
between Frink's restaurant and Chris
tensen's store. He has been here for
about two years and always bore a good
reputation. Maud Brunsberg was en-
ployed in his shop as waiter until
about two weeks ago when she was dis
charged. She is pretty girl of about
fifteen years, and quite winning in her
manners.
Anderson was arrested at about four
o'clock yesterday afternoon and lodged
in the county Jail until after supper,
when he was brought before Judge Por-
ter, but waived an examination. He
was bound over to the next term of the
district court to await the action of the
grand jury, and bail was fixed at $500
which was furnished, by his counsel, Mr..
M. ID. l.. Collester, going his security.
Mr.. ]. l.. Washburn is attorney for the
plaintiff.
Mr.. Anderson claims that it is case
of blackmall and denies the charge up
and down. He says that he discharged
the girl about two weeks ago because
she was out on the streets so much nights
and also because she had been system
atically robbing his money drawer. He
thinks that the girls mother brought on
the trouble because he would not en-
ploy her again. The girl worked for
him about three months. He says that
he had advised the girl 10 mend her ways
and offered to pay her dollar week
toward her board if she would go to
school this winter.

One of the meanest, small acts we
have heard of lately is reported by I. NJ.
Pugh, Esq. On Thursday afternoon as
two Mankatoites who had been out
hunting were returning home and when
passing Mr. Pughs home in South Bend,
stopped in front of his yard and shot a
fine Plymouth Rock chicken. Such ac-
ton as this cannot be condemned in too
strong terms. 1t is meanness of the
most vulgar stripe. Mr.. Pugh says that
he would give a man all the chickens he
could carry home, if only solicited, but
he is justly indignant at the action of
those who took the liberty to shoot into
his "home covey."
The improvement of the Normal
school grounds is progressing rapidly.
The sidewalk has been nearly lowered
to grade, the course of Warren's creek
has been turned and substantial wall
three feet thick will protect the grading
on that side. A number of trees have
also been removed, leaving only the
more slightly. Several lines of drain tile
will be put on the north side of the
building. A fine sawed stone walk will
lead to the front steps of the building
Wide, easy steps of the same material
will lead from the Fifth street sidewalk
up the rounded terrace. When the
work is completed the normal grounds
will present handsome appearance.
An alarm of fire was sounded this
morning and brought the fire depart

the alarm was slight blaze in the cellar
of Mr.. j. w. Fowler's new residence, or
the corner Of Clark and Center streets
Mrs. Fowler was experimenting the
blacking of some stoves and applied
some of the material to hot stove
when it flashed up and burned he
hands severely. Her dress caught fire
but was quickly extinguished. Sh'
threw the backing away from her an'
it landed in pile of shavings, which
caught fire, but was soon put out withou
any damage. Physicians were summon
ed and alleviated Mrs. Fowler's suffer
ings. The burns are severe but not a
all serious.
